Chapter 284: Del Passani
Prometheus stroked the white wrench on his thumb, the texture of the seemingly soft ash wood was actually extremely hard, and the wrench shone with wisps of light, getting brighter and brighter, like a misty white mist. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The tables, chairs, and furnishings in the room changed rapidly, and after a few seconds, the scene had changed, and Prometheus was already in a huge circular temple, with no candles or oil lamps, but it was as bright as day, and there was no light source in sight.
The temple is surrounded by dozens of idols of different deities, and in the center of the temple is a huge round table with eight seats.
Prometheus' form is slightly illusory, this is not his entity, but a projection of consciousness.
This temple is the highest council chamber of the Holy See, and it will not be opened easily unless it is a big event.
Since the appearance of Prometheus, there have been six cardinal archbishops in the hall who are also wearing red robes, all of them are consciousness projections, and they all look old, among which the most serious one, the wrinkles on his face are like dead trees, and he looks like he will die at any time, and what is a little funny is that there is still a small handful of long gray hair on the top of his head, like a dog tail grass inserted on a bare wrinkled egg, and it seems that the old bishop is very precious A small handful of hair on the top of his head, combed a few times from time to time, and the first to open his mouth was also a braised egg, trembling and said: " Prometheus, why did you hold the 'Council of the Reds'?"
Also Cardinal, Prometheus saluted respectfully, "Your Excellency. ”
This funny-looking little old man is the oldest cardinal in the first cardinal, Benniedro Pushkin.
There was still an empty seat, which was the Pope's seat, and Benidro said, "The Pope is praying, let's discuss it first." ”
Prometheus told Ivo of his application as it was, and when the cardinals were groaning, he said, "I am in favor of approving Ivo Harriken's journey of redemption." ”
Benedicto tapped his fingers on the table, "Seconded." ”
Seeing his statement, the second cardinal archbishop also said: "Seconded." ”
However, the four cardinals from the third to the sixth did not speak, and after a long time, the cardinal sitting in the third place said lightly: "Oppose." ”
Prometheus' gaze shrank.
Where there are people, there are fights, and the cardinal archbishops are also divided into two factions, one is the conservative faction headed by Benedicto, who is also inclined to Benedicto, and the other faction is the radical faction led by the third cardinal del Pasani, which occupies four of the seven bishops, but the reality is that Benedicto firmly crushes Del Pasani, for the simple reason that the pope is a conservative.
Del Pasani Don Lune, the full name of the Third Cardinal, was the youngest of all the cardinals, with a middle-aged man in his forties, with deep nasolabial folds, a majestic look, slightly gray temples, thick hair, and a distinctive sense of dignity.
Del Pasani is not just a cardinal, he is also the brother of Emperor Odin!
"Don" is the surname of the Odin royal family!
The culture of the Odin Empire is different from that of Frigga, the first paragraph is his own name, the middle is the family name, and finally the patronymic.
"Against. ”
"Against. ”
"Against. ”
The fourth, fifth, and sixth cardinals all followed del Pasani's statement.
Four votes to three!
Benidro glanced at Del Passani, indifferent.
Prometheus sighed helplessly, although he understood that Ivo could bring many benefits to the Holy See, he was powerless to sway the opinions of the bigwigs present.
At this moment, an old man dressed in a gorgeous white and gold robe appeared, and the cardinal archbishops present stood up one after another, bowing their heads in respect.
This amiable-looking old man is the Pope, who is as noble as a god!
The Pope pressed his palms weakly, motioned for the bishops to sit down, and said gently: "I'm late, how is the meeting?"
Prometheus repeatedly, including the vote just now, without any embellishment, only in a declarative tone, although he did not like Del Passani, but all of them were experienced old men, and words were useless.
After hearing this, the Pope still said gently: "We should not block a heresy who wants to reform himself, the Holy See embraces the world, whether he is good or evil, as long as he is willing to throw himself into the arms of the gods, we should give him a chance, and I seconded it." ”
Prometheus looked slightly happy, one vote of the Pope was equivalent to two votes, and Ivo's application for redemption was approved.
Del Pasani was calm, it didn't matter if he passed or not, anyway, he didn't lose or benefit.
The Pope, however, seemed interested in Ivo, "It is rare for a seventeen-year-old boy to do such an achievement, and I can't wait to baptize him and see what kind of person he really is." ”
Benidro shrugged, "He may not be able to complete the journey of redemption, he may die halfway through, although the Inquisition will not intervene against those who carry out redemption, but in the eyes of other heretics, participating in the journey of redemption is betrayal, the enemy of all heretics." ”
The Pope looked at Prometheus, who said at the right time: "I have met him once, and I think he can do it." ”
The Pope laughed, "Then proclaim it." ”
The projections of consciousness of the eight magnates of the Holy Court dissipated one after another.
......
Three days later, Prometheus came to the door.
The top floor of the town hall is home to Ivo, with a dedicated reception room.
After sitting down, Prometheus took out a delicate badge and put it on the table, saying, "This is the forty-ninth chapter of salvation, and the Holy See has approved your application." ”
Ivo raised his eyebrows, took the badge and looked at it carefully, it was engraved with a prayer in black letters, nothing more than the set of "sinners yearn for heaven", and a scepter was engraved in the center of the badge, which represented the white scepter in the hands of the pope, which was a symbol of clerical power.
The Badge of Salvation is in full bloom, obviously enchanted, and the purpose is that it cannot be imitated, among other functions.
The journey of redemption is a long journey, Ivo has to visit every church along the way, and accept a mission from the local church priest, of course, this is called "recovering the goodness of the dust", the priest usually gives the task of helping the local towns and people, the requirements are different, most of them let the heretics help others.
After completing the priest's mission, the priest will use divine magic to leave a mark and message in the chapter of redemption, indicating his recognition of the redeemer, starting from landing on the coastline of Odin, the redeemer cannot miss any church along the way, through the mark left by each priest can outline the route of the redemption journey on the map, if you miss any priest on the way, the redemption journey will fail.
The Holy See on the Odin Continent is the most powerful, and there are at least hundreds of churches along the way, and each place will be delayed for a while, and the journey is destined to be long.
The priest's task is different, difficult and easy, and there is no room for failure, and if you encounter a particularly difficult priest, it is even more time-consuming.
The journey of redemption is full of dangers, heretics regard the redeemer as a traitor, and many former redeemers have died at the hands of heretics, which is also the original intention of the journey of redemption, consuming the power of heresy.
The hardships and troubles of the journey to redemption are like learning from the West.
After arriving in the Holy Land of Eden, if you collect the seal of approval of all the priests along the way, and are still alive, you are eligible to receive the Holy Baptism of the Pope, and the Pope uses the light of the gods to torture the hearts of the redeemer, not formalized, but really magical.
All the secrets of the redeemer will be exposed to the sun, which is also the most difficult place, if it is a person with bad intentions, it will not be able to hide it at all, and it will be directly imprisoned in the Inquisition, that group of madmen are very fond of dissecting all kinds of heretics, and there have been heretics who have tried to infiltrate the Holy See through the journey of redemption, and have failed without accident.
As for the possibility of revolt...... There are hundreds of thousands of priests in the Holy Land, shrouded in thousands of divine arts, and within a second of the idea of rebellion, it is estimated that it will turn into a pile of scum.
However, Ivo is not worried, the divine torture of the soul is equivalent to mind control, as long as the rank does not exceed Lao De, he will not be hit, although Lao De is very impotent now, but it is essentially a high-level existence, unless the gods come in person, the Pope will not be able to break through his spiritual barrier at all.
Prometheus thought that Ivo was trying to gain papal refuge, and he was doomed to be wrong.
In order to fulfill Augusta's agreement, Ivo said to the Pope alone that "the raven has three eyes" and unlocked the limits of the Mana Furnace, which was his true intention.
Anyway, he still didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, Augusta's original words were that it could save the world, and Ivo always felt that the old gods had fooled him.
Alas, poor old man.
Suppressing the clutter, Ivo put away the chapter of redemption and nodded, "Thank you very much, Bishop Prometheus. ”
